Subsidy month of May is a highlight of the Apace calendar, providing an exciting buzz and energy around the nursery. The Djeran/autumn weather and rains provide the perfect environment for planting.

2025 Native Plant Subsidy Scheme

The Native Plant Subsidy Scheme returns from Thursday May 1 to Saturday May 31.

This is a fantastic opportunity to choose native plants that are adapted to thrive in Perth’s environment. Local plant species don’t just look beautiful- they can provide food and shelter for native animals and pollinators and help shade and cool your house and garden.

Residents of participating councils will be able to purchase subsidised native seedlings from Apace for $3.00 each. Please check your participating council website for up to date information and plant allocation per household.

To redeem this offer at Apace, please take proof of your residential address and photo ID to Apace Nursery, located at 1 Johannah Street, North Fremantle from Thursday May 1. This offer is valid once per household. While stocks last.
Apace retail hours: Wednesday-Saturday: 8:30am-2pm.
